Re: How did you improve the wiki today?

Comments, suggestions, bug reports, minor fixes, major edits etc. are welcome.Chances are I'll add a couple more sections later, but on the other hand, maybe I won't and in the meantime someone else will.

Re: How did you improve the wiki today?

This is "How I wanted to improve the wiki today but couldn't"

The wiki page for the new install scripts is incomplete for the syslinux bootloader because pacstrap /mnt syslinux won't just do it. You still have to get it installed intothe MBR (syslinux-install_update -i -a -m -c /mnt) and change the default config file so that root=/dev/sda3 matches up with your root partition.

Added to the MTP articel, because accessing my Galaxy Nexus was a pain in the ass and pretty much nothing that I foundon the internet worked (gvfs-gphoto2, libmtp, mtpfs tested serveral versions). Hope this saves someone else some time.

Re: How did you improve the wiki today?

I recently wrote a page for my new computer, which is a Lenovo ThinkPad Edge E430. So today I discovered the (non opensource) drivers for my fingerprint scanner, so I wrote a page for fingerprint-gui... in retrospect, the fungerprint scanner is really annoying.

Re: How did you improve the wiki today?

I have been dusting around on the LUKS page since July, cleaning links, lightly changing and adding tidbits, including my first ever systemd-oneshot (Yay!) for an AUR package referenced somewhere there.

Then after a great recent experience with the September Install Medium on a notebook, I recently added a subsection on how to prepare the mounts to install base to plain, no fancy, no-LVM LUKS in that discourse. Felt that was at a loss before. I follow the talk page there.
